	DVD Review - Gorillas In The Mist
		Although "Gorillas In The Mist" contains a very good music score, which is very sparingly used throughout the movie, the film is living on the engrossing ambient sounds it captures from the wildlife.
		Despite the downbeat ending - which was tragically dictated by Fossey’s real-life story "Gorillas In The Mist" is a film of hope.
		While the character of Ellen Ripley in the "Alien" movies were certainly Sigourney Weaver’s most famous and successful roles, her portrayal of sociologist Dian Fossey in "Gorillas In The Mist" was clearly the most remarkable and respectable one in her entire career.

	`Gorillas In The Mist'; The Sequel
		The existence of the endangered gorillas was made widely known by the film "Gorillas in the Mist", about Dian Fossey who lived with and studied the gorillas, until she was killed in the misty forests of the Congo.
		But these were not the kind of natives like that benevolent Bushman in the farcical film, "The Gods Must Be Crazy".
		The forest park is the last stronghold of the endangered mountain gorillas.

	eBay - DVD: Gorillas in the Mist
		Based on anthropologist Dian Fossey's autobiography, and an article by Harold T. Hayes, GORILLAS IN THE MIST is a portrait of the determined woman who will do anything to save the mountain gorillas that she studies, and for whose well-being she has a passionate commitment.
		During filming, she was coached through an ear piece; when charged by a gorilla, the actress was told to look as submissive as possible, which meant making herself smaller than the gorilla and avoiding eye contact.
		The film crew's base camp was at 8500 feet; Karisoke Research Center, where Fossey worked, was at 12,000 feet, which required a hardy film crew who could withstand the rigors of the daily climb to the location.

	Encyclopedia of Claims, Frauds and Hoaxes of the Occult and Supernatural
		The 1989 film Gorillas in the Mist used actors in costumes that were totally convincing.
		In the 1968 film 2001: A Space Odyssey, most viewers were not aware that the apes shown were actors in costume holding real baby chimpanzees.
		The Patterson figure is nowhere nearly as good as those representations, though we cannot expect that a genuine Bigfoot must move like an ape, and may very well move like a human dressed in an uncomfortable costume.

	VFX HQ: SPAWN
		The film also contains dozens upon dozens of shots of green mist eminating from Spawn's eyes and Clown's butt, along with several other pieces of digital animation, all of which looked good and were tracked into the frame well.
		As Spawn uses his armor for the first time in the graveyard sequence, the animation and textures are brilliant, but the complicated camera move was not precisely matched-moved to the 3D elements.
		SPAWN is a visually stunning film with a wide range of visual effects.

	Theo Angelopoulos
		The first film of Theo Angelopoulos' self-described Trilogy of Silence (that also includes The Beekeeper and Landscape in the Mist), Voyage to Cythera is a sublimely poetic, elegiac, and profoundly moving portrait of disconnection, aging, and obsolescence.
		Achieving a visual dichotomy that is both patternistic and deconstructive, the film serves as an indelible chronicle of the destruction of tradition and family, the cultural erosion of contemporary Greek society, and the desolation of the human soul.
		Throughout the film, the troupe inexhaustibly attempts to perform the same play from village to village, only to be invariably disrupted by air raids, arrests, gunfire, and murder.

	Citizen Kane (1941)
		Both films open and close on a matted image of a mansion in the distance.] The film's first sight is a "No Trespassing" sign hanging on a giant gate in the night's foggy mist, illuminated by the moonlight.
		The film tells the thought-provoking, tragic epic story of a 'rags-to-riches' child who inherited a fortune, was taken away from his humble surroundings and his father and mother, was raised by a banker, and became a fabulously wealthy, arrogant, and energetic newspaperman.
		The film was accused of drawing remarkable, unflattering, and uncomplimentary parallels (especially in regards to the Susan Alexander Kane character) to real-life.

	OnWisconsin Live Movies: Seabiscuit
		It's hard enough for a film to be true to a book, much less a life, and this one also owes a debt to Horatio Alger, "The Grapes of Wrath" and "Ferdinand the Bull." And its lacquered portrait of men bonding over competition is at the heart of every sports movie ever made.
		Laura Hillenbrand's fascinating biography of the legendary racehorse is a full-blooded portrait of an intelligent and sentient creature that the gauzy period film never quite captures.

	The DVD Journal Quick Reviews: Lifeboat
		There are moments in the film when the transfer appears to display artifacts, but in fact this most likely is a result of the oil-and-water mist Hitchcock directed at his stars with giant fans (and they say he didn't like actors).
		Lifeboat (1944) begins with two startling images: A smokestack on a large transatlantic steamer bellows coal-black soot, only to tip over sideways and fall into the sea; amid the floating debris-field, a lifeboat contains a glamorous woman, smoking a cigarette with luggage at her side, perturbed that she has a run in her stocking.
		To be certain, Lifeboat is grim — the characters' predicament is underscored by a constant sense of loss and wearing away, as one by one things are sent overboard: a camera, a typewriter, food and water, an amputated leg, and eventually people.

	Anaconda
		During the film I was often wondering why several of the actors participated in it, as some of them have actually produced respectable films in the past.
		Films that use second rate computers to generate effects are so obvious because the snake is blurry, has very "plastic" looking colors, and casts no shadows.
		These "People of the Mist" or whatever ridiculous name they go by, live deep in the jungle, where no one has ever dared to tread (theater goers shouldn't either).

		Another problem with the film is when plot elements defy science so badly that we cannot get past the film being a fantasy.
		Early on, we see an unusually large, and inexperienced, documentary crew starting their journey into the dense jungle to find the mysterious 'people of the mist'.
		"Anaconda" has a cast with some talented actors, a menacing monster, a scary unexplored jungle location, personality conflicts between the characters, and yet, somehow with all this, the movie stank.

	Ashley Fell: Heroes With Bloody Hands
		Later, Blondie recognizes Tuco by the timing of distant pistol shots, making the observation, "Every gun plays its own tune." This coldly spoken metaphor implies that in such a violent landscape, a gun is a musical instrument and the gunslinger an artist, writing poetry in a fine mist of blood.
		Film is a work of aesthetics, where a director such as Sergio Leone controls everything an audience sees and hears.
		When watching a film, an audience makes subconscious assumptions based on a set of visual clues accumulated from other movies.

	Jarhead London Movie Review
		Gyllenhaal effortlessly carries the film, making an engaging lead, even if his character’s lust for the pink mist is a little disturbing.
		Given that the film is about the recruits sitting around and waiting for something to happen, it’s churlish to complain about the lack of plot.
		Sam Mendes’ latest film is beautifully shot and features a terrific cast but it stops short of saying anything meaningful.

	Seven Days: Disappearances
		At this point, Craven shifts his film into high gear, stomps on the gas, and steers straight for a magical backwoods of bootlegger monks, rival hijacking gangs, music-filled mountain honky-tonks, steam trains that have a way of vanishing into forest mist, and longhaired men with machine guns.
		With 96 films to his credit, he's appeared in a remarkable array of movies, from Peckinpah's Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia ('74) and Scorsese's Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore ('75) to Alan Rudolph's Trouble in Mind ('86) and John Sayles' Lone Star ('96).
		Kristofferson's been around this block often enough to sense that double and triple crosses await them; he convinces his wife that a "scouting mission" up north is in order to check things out.

	Guardian Unlimited The Guardian Leader: Brief encounters
		Shots of the express train hurtling through were filmed at Carnforth and then the negatives were reversed so the train could also be seen going in the opposite direction, a fact that, as film buffs noted, meant it was running on the wrong track.
		This is a rare case of reality imitating art: a black and white film well over 50 years old, set in a station at which trains no longer stop, has generated what can be regarded as a piece of installation art of the kind that might well be housed in the Tate Modern's giant bowels.
		The director had an imitation of the celebrated refreshment room constructed in Denham film studios in London and transported to Carnforth to make some scenes more realistic.

	DVD Review - Ghost World
		For me, the film served as a reminder of all of the friendships that seemed like they would last forever yet somehow vanished into the mist of my own Ghost World.
		At times hilarious, the film is at its heart a rather dark tale that I found to be powerfully moving in its portrayal of the end of childhood friendships, dreams, and innocence.
		"Ghost World" is a film that resides near the top of just about every film critic’s top ten list for 2001.

	Salt Lake City Weekly - Cinema - 981105 - Lolita
		Dominque Swain — who has never appeared in a film before, let alone taken an acting class — is absolutely stunning as Lolita, perfectly capturing the character's childish impishness and petulance as well as her coquettish sensuality and vulnerability.
		When Humbert first sees Lolita, lying on the lawn under the sprinklers, she appears to him from under the mist like a vision of longing from the past.
		I finally saw it on videocassette, but now, you'll have a chance to see this exquisitely acted, melancholy and quite tame film as it should be seen — on the big screen — at the Tower Theatre.
